What is the minimum and maximum voltage you can supply the PSOne and still maintain stable operation? Is this the same for the PSOne screen?

Jeez, I feel like such a nub when asking these kinds of questions. :P

OK, that kind of sucks because I was hoping I could use a 12v battery. Ha, good thing I didn't! :D

You could use a step-down converter or a switching regulator to drop down the voltage a bit (almost in half) and since switching regulators are almost 100% effecient, you'd be almost doubling your mAh. (I think)

switching regs can be as low as 75% efficient.
